Throttle body gasket P/N

Post by ericem »

Hey guys you have a part number. I read BAC 5.2 having a issue with idle like mine, and I am thinking this could indeed be my problem! Don't really want to pull it apart first then find the gasket broken so I can not put it back together hehe.

haha finally about to install the gasket lol. Um does coolant flow between the gasket anywhere just out of curiousity.

Also plan on just removing the bolts and sliding in the new gasket as long as the gasket comes out nice and full. Is this a bad idea?! Your comment on this is appreciated!

you should be able to just pull all 4 bolts and move your throttle body out of the way a little.

as far as coolant, no colant flows thru the gasket

i don't know about coming out in one piece, as most gaskets get sealed they tend to break when you remove stuff... like when you take your intake manifold off, they tend to break apart. ofcourse the heads get alot hotter than your throttle body, you may be successful or you may have bad luck..

there's only one way to find out

Coolant does not flow against the gasket.

Depending on the gasket it may come off in one piece. The newer ones tend to. The older ones did not.
